Setup First, enable canned responses for your account on Google Groups. Click My Settings, then My Global Settings, and then check the box next to "Use canned responses. " In the group in which you wish to use your canned responses, make sure that you have permission to do so. From the homepage of that group, click Manage in the top-right corner.
